General Nathanael Greene commanded colonial troops
facing Lord Cornwallis and his army at the Battle
of Guilford Courthouse in 1781. The Redcoats won,
but suffered such severe losses that they never
fully recovered, leading to the surrender of
Cornwallis the following October in Yorktown. The
battleground is now a National Military Park in
Greensboro, North Carolina, which was named for
the Fighting Quaker, Nat Greene.
